Verifying Correct Configuration Of The Fabric - IBM Storage Networking SAN128B-6 Installation, Service And User Manual

4. Verify that all the IP address information is correct by entering ipAddrShow and checking the results
against the IP information recorded in the config-miscinfo.txt file.

Verifying correct configuration of the fabric

About this task
Copying the command outputs from this section into a file is recommended. You must be logged in with
Admin privileges.
Procedure
1. Create an "after" SAN profile by entering the following commands and copying the output to a text
file named SANafter.txt:
v nsShow
v nsAllShow
v switchShow
v fabricShow
v lscfg --show (if using the Virtual Fabric feature)
switch:admin> nsshow

2. Determine any differences between the information in the SANafter.txt file and the information in the
SANbefor.txt file created earlier. In particular, look for differences in the following:
v Device types
v Number of devices
v ISL and port states
v Number of switches in the fabric
3. Resolve any issues or unintentional changes to the device or fabric:
v If there are any mechanical problems, try reseating the associated component.
v If the configuration information is not correct for the device, modify as required.
